What happens with every role, you have to trick yourself, you have to creatively find ways to explore the mental state of your character.

Sometimes when you're playing a very intense character, a disturbed character, you find other layers. That's much more interesting to me, rather than just playing 'intense.' I find it too boring.

For me, acting is becoming naked in front of people, you know? And when you know in the back of your mind somebody is testing you, you cannot really bare yourself. That's a feeling I always have when I'm auditioning.

Maybe to become famous is to reassure yourself that whatever you're lacking inside, you've fulfilled that.

I don't want to do romantic roles where I have to lip sync to a song. A role that explores romance on a new level would suit me.

It surely gives you a high to be an international actor with quality work.
